[edit] Definition of Yichud

The first sentence of this article is confusing. Literally, Yichud does not mean "prohibition of seclusion"; it means "seclusion". This is why when couples seclude themselves after a wedding, it is called a Yichud. However, the Law dealing with proper behavior between unmarried women and men is usually not referred to as "prohibition of Yichud", but simply, "Yichud". Hence the confusion. Can someone who knows more about this than me edit this accordingly? Perhaps they could explain the differences in usage.

some time ago the name of the artile was just "yichud" I don't know when or who changed it, but I think that is should be changed back. Jon513 19:30, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
